Hannah Brandler
ART INNOVATOR

Tell us about teamLab.

teamLab is an international art collective founded in 2001. It's made up of specialists with different skillsets, including painters, CG animators, software and hardware engineers, mathematicians and architects. Founder Toshiyuki Inoko's background is in physics and robotics, while mine is in literature and philosophy. I joined in 2010 and previously worked as editor-in-chief for a video game magazine in Stockholm. I don't have a title as such at teamLab. We're a collective so we don't care about titles or independent names - we're a team!

What's teamLab's mission?

At teamLab, we try to form relationships between humans and the world through artworks.

It's comparable to travel. When people travel, they experience the world. For instance, you might be able to see Mount Fuji in guidebooks, magazines, the internet or on TV, but if you really want to understand such a place then you need to travel there.
